Easy Prints^® Custom Screen Printed Transfers

How do your prints compare to screen printing?

Our Hot Split, Goof Proof^®, Polytrans, Elasti Prints™, Glitter, and Reflective transfers are screen printed. If you are looking for a light, breathable print, select Hot Split. For a heavier, athletic feel select Goof Proof. Our transfers are just as durable as direct screen printing!

Which ink formula should I use?

All three of our products work on cotton, polyester, or a cotton/poly blend. The choice is based on the feel of the product. More information can be found here.

• Hot Split has a lighter, softer feel. It also allows you to do more with multi colors. Hot Split gold, yellow, tan and neon ink colors do not work on dark garments. All other ink colors will work on all other colors.

• Goof Proof^® is your choice for a heavier feel. If using white, gold or yellow ink on a dark garment, we recommend Goof Proof for the heavier feel and opacity.

• Polytrans uses the same ink and adhesive as Goof Proof but is best used if you need to apply at a lower temperature.

• Use Elasti Prints™ formula for garments that stretch.

If I send you a design, do you re-size it for full chest or pocket prints or do I have to send it the size I want it to be?

What is the best way to print on mesh items without the transfer going through to the other side?
